Re-Entry Students
Previous Northern Michigan University undergraduate students who have not been enrolled at NMU for at least one year are considered re-entry applicants and will be re-admitted to the university provided they are eligible to do so under the Northern Michigan University academic proficiency policy.

Students who have attended other colleges, but who have never attended NMU, are considered new transfer students and will find helpful information under the information for transfer students. Students who have completed their undergraduate program but are interested in pursuing a Masters degree should visit the graduate admission Web site.
Students who are applying again to be dually enrolled at NMU while still attending high school should complete the dual enrollment-permission to enroll form again.
Re-Entry Application Instructions
- Apply - Complete the re-entry update form. If you were suspended from NMU at the end of your last enrollment, you will receive information from the Admissions Office regarding the steps you need to take before being re-admited. Re-entry students are not required to pay a second application fee.
- Transcripts - Re-entry applicants must supply transcripts from institutions attended since last attendance at NMU. You must have an official transcript submitted directly from each institution you attended even if no credits were earned. (Transcripts from foreign institutions need to be sent to an external agency for evaluation. Please contact the Admissions Office for information).
- Appeals - If suspended or dismissed from Northern Michigan University following their last enrollment, re-entry student applicants must submit appeals to the Admission and Academic Policies Committee through the Academic and Career Advisement Center.
- Test Scores - Students applying for an education major should submit ACT or SAT test scores if they have not already done so.
- Debts - All debts to the university must be paid before course registration.
